| ioi said: Hmmm, this thread is slightly annoying. Let's get some facts straight 1. Gamestop is the market leader in US videogame sales accounting for 25-30% of all sales. 2. NPD data for April does seem too low based on everything I know (which is a lot). 3. Having said that, inferring anything from what gamestop says is clutching at straws since they may have doubled in sales whereas all other stores could have stayed flat - not the case, but just to make the point that taking one retailer isn't a good way of making an argument for the whole market. End of conversation. |
Doh, I really didn't think they were that high although if you facture software and used games it kinda does make sense....
I agree with you Ioi my argument was a clutch, it just seems unlikely that the market as a whole would have behaved differently from the market leader....
